About this map

Klamath National Forest dominates this interior mountain landscape, where deep drainages like Ragged Gulch and Fat Doe Gulch carve into the high ridges of the Siskiyou range. The topography is defined by significant elevations such as Sterling Mtn and Buckhorn Bally, which watch over a network of remote water sources including Cinnabar Springs and Buckhorn Spring. Human presence is concentrated around timber and transit routes, notably along the Old Beaver Creek Rd and the West Beaver road system.

A rare focal point of infrastructure in this rugged terrain is the Round Mountain Airport, located near Round Mtn and Fish Gulch. The map captures a detailed inventory of small-scale mountain geography, from the named meadows at Cleghorn Meadows to the specialized landmarks like Pipeline Gap and Quigleys Cove. This 2021 survey provides a contemporary record of the forest's hydrology and relief, from the headwaters of Beaver Cr to the narrow corridors of Woodchopper Gulch.
